History
The NMAC is one of the oldest model aero clubs in the country.
 
President Brian Baker has maintained a scrapbook for many years, and some extracts are shown here. The early history of the Club

When in 1946 Howard Boys competed in Lyon, he was accompanied by Brian Dun, still an active member of the Club.

Since 1972, many events have taken place, including the establishment of regular exchange visits with the Model Flug Gruppe of Marburg in Germany
Merv Heycroft's magnificent eight foot wingspan Falcon. This model was driven by one of the first four stroke model engines, the OS 0.60 cu in. No rocker covers, valves all exposed!
